And I hope ...I agree with Vagabonde&#39;s analysis. And I hope we will survive this orange buffoon. The only thing that give me a little hope is that HRC won the popular vote by well over 2 million. But the actions against minorities evidently being perpetrated by some who were emboldened by T&#39;s election are heartbreaking. And T&#39;s choices for a cabinet are terrifying -- he hopes to undo all that has been good in the USA.Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4221422756955422308.post-20395645843876438562016-11-15T21:08:00.846+00:002016-11-15T21:08:00.846+00:00It certainly was a surprising election. But I do ...It certainly was a surprising election. But I do believe there are many similarities between Donald Trump’s election and Brexit. For example both Donald Trump and the Leave campaign emphasized problems with immigration, wanting “foreigners” out, getting “their country back.” Both had ardent followers who were the “left behind” group, people who felt they were not getting their fair share. Most voters for Hillary Clinton were educated people, college graduates. The less educated went for Trump. Similarly, the UK polls showed that university graduates were those wanting to remain in the EU. Both campaign were very emotional and divided people. Both wanted to kick the establishment. And, unfortunately, now both countries have shown a marked increase in hate crimes after election results.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.com
